Windows media player troubleshoot

Posted: 09-11-2003, 06:54 PM
I recently changed my connectionn speed from a 56k modem
to a T3 line (100 mb per second). I would like Windows
media player to automatically search for the names titles
and tracks. When I had the 56K modem it worked, now with
the faster connection speed, windows media player doesn't
recogize the LAN connection. I have manually changed the
connection in the player itself and still does not update
the songs. It gives the message, "You must be connected
to the internet before you can perform this operation."

>Try again after downloading the newer version 9.0 of
Windows Media Player. Older versions of WMP do not
support some highspeed downloading, but I don't know
about T3. Wish I could afford that speed!

sounds like the ports that media player uses to recieve the track info is
being blocked. it might be a software firewall you have installed, or
something hardware.
